Abstract

To address the vulnerability of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) to adversarial samples and the lack of high-quality adversarial samples in the Chinese context, the method introduces a new Chinese adversarial sample generation method named CMDS. In the keyword selection stage, the Score function used identifies positions where perturbations can be added effectively, ensuring the adversarial samples are both readable and difficult to detect. During the adversarial sample generation phase, the method fully exploits characteristics unique to Chinese, considering aspects such as character shape, meaning, and region-specific homophones. Various perturbation strategies, including similar characters, synonyms, homophones, and word order disruption, are employed along with a multi-priority perturbation strategy to generate adversarial samples. Finally, a perturbation rate threshold controls the output, eliminating samples that differ too greatly from the original text. Following this, a series of experiments compare CMDS with baseline methods to explore the impact of perturbation threshold sizes, involve human evaluations, and conduct real-world attack tests. These experiments confirm the effectiveness and transferability of CMDS in enhancing model security. Results show that CMDS surpasses baseline methods in terms of attack success rate by up to 36.9 percentage points and improves model security by more than 30 percentage points. The generated adversarial samples are of high quality and demonstrate strong generalizability.
